Grew up back East, got sick of the cold and headed West. Since I was small I have been pushing buttons - both electronic and human. With an insatiable need for tech I thought "why not start a blog focusing on technology, and use my dislikes and likes to post on gadgets."

Is there any debate? iPhone hands down has the best touch screen.
Seth Engelhard

The iPhone is my favorite touch-screen phone because I'm a shameless apple fan-boy!

I own an Samsung Instinct and let me tell you it no iPhone. I've played with both the G1 and the iPhone and I must go with the iPhone. I really love the slim and sleek look and the user interface is really clean and user friendly. All the apps really help too.

iPhone is definately the best touchscreen phone ever made…the impeccable amalgamation of looks and features is simply unmatched so far…altough it, like every other touchscreen phone in the market, has its loopholes…its not coincidence that every third guy u see uses an apple iphone!!
John LaCava

I'd love to disagree with the crowd here… and I am not really into the iPhone… but from what I can tell, it is actually the best product of this sort on the market. That said, I hate touch screen phone… you cant do anything with actually looking at the phone! and the screen gets all smudgy from head and finger grease! Let us not forget that they are the size of bricks! No, I like a nice small mobile.. the sort that can fit in your jeans change pocket!

G1 is my favorite because AT&T sucks.
Peter D

Mine is probably the t mobile G1, just because I like the whole google android platform and the expandability it offers.

iPhone + app store totally rules. I really don't like Apple as a company, but I must say, the iPhone and iPod touch are truly awesome devices. They did a real good job with the iPhone, and it shows; the number one selling phone in the US. I can't afford one, so I have an LG Dare instead. Pretty responsive touch screen and a great camera. Plus a replaceable battery :-) iPhone still wins though.

I loved my Palm Treo 600. I've had a few other touch phones that make the criteria – but nothing beats the physical keyboard and the Palm OS, even on the slow device, ran much better and performed the basic duties better than any of the 3 WinMo phones I've had since then.

I prefer the iPhone, largely due to the app store. To be honest, I haven't tried any others, though.

So the meizum8 has finished production and they’re just waiting for approval from the chinese government. It looks hot. I would definitely get it.
Dave Mac

I don’t own the iPhone, but I have seen it in action. It beats my company issued ATT 8525 hands down. That phone locks up and requires me to remove the battery!
Jake

The iPhone is definitely my favorite touchscreen phone. The touchscreen is very responsive and the app store is awesome, especially Cube Runner.
james

it’s definitely iPhone. great game machine, the phone part is OK

The Blackberry Storm is awsome because it has an insanely good touch screen.

Being in the military and a medical resident, I’ve seen several of the new touch screen phones. They are look very cool. However, it seems that the iPhone is the most useful in it’s ability to mulitfunction. I will eventually get one since my position in the military will probably benefit from it. And I need an Elite pointer as well. How cool is that.

IF I WHERE TO BUY ONE IT WOULD BE THE IPHONE BECAUSE IT IS EASY, AND SMALL. EASY TO USE AND LIGHT.
Kathy Macchia

I have to vote for the Iphone. They have just made it so easy to use, and I love the Ipod part of it.

I’ve never used a touchscreen phone, but from what my friends tell me, I cant disagree. Putting looks and usability together has never been as good as the iPhone.
Michelle

I’m in love with my sister’s iPhone just because of the touch screen. I’d spend all day swinging my finger around the screen of that phone.

Iphone FTW
Mike

The Blackberry Storm, because it has a great screen and tons of uses

iPhone — the app store. G1 is probably gonna take over though.
Vishal Rampershad

I’ve been a Nokia fan for decades, and even though the N97 is not launched, I’m certain that it will trump many of the touch screen phones currently out there. The combination of a touch screen and a full qwerty keyboard, makes for device that’s not only versatile, but practical and user friendly. Although, the T-Mobile G1 shares these features, one has to take into account that Nokia has been producing high quality and technologically advanced handsets for a long time. The European and Asian markets have come to appreciate Nokia and it’s products. The US is still playing catch-up.
Wyatt Rose

I would have to say that the iPhone is by far the best of the touch screen phones, mainly because it has so many applications to add to it.
Ryan

iPhone–it’s just very intuitive and of course shiny :)
